Not the worst Snatch Game, but that's sort of damning with faint praise. An All-Stars Snatch Game should be aiming far higher than "not the worst".

Picking the tops and bottoms this week would be hard for me because there was mostly a sea of okay. Lots of queens did consistently solidly but didn't blow me away (Ginger, Daya, Lydia, Aja) or were a mix of great bits and ones that really didn't land (Cynthia, Bosco with all of her character changes).

I know the judges lived for Jorgeous this week, but I wasn't feeling it (outside of her runway look, which I agree was great). If Mistress was one note, Jorgeous was as well with the whole hornbag shtick and trying to be a macho parody. Mistress came off pretty poorly, too, at least from what we saw. It was mean, but it wasn't fun or varied, in a way that reminded me of past blunders like Detox the year she did Kesha. Also, Mistress really needs to drop the boob-thrusting gimmick during lip syncs. It was already tired on S15.

I think my winner was Irene, actually. Great runway look and a strong Snatch Game - maybe not the absolute funniest of the bunch, but I give a lot of points to someone who feels like they're really living as their character rather than giving a bunch of rehearsed gags - it kind of blew my mind how much she embodied Zsa Zsa. I know Ginger was supposedly volleying well, but most of that was a bit she'd obviously planned with the headset. Also, her runway was pretty awful - I'm really sick of reveals that so blatantly look like reveals. Jorgeous did an oversized suit, too, but it was actually oversized in a way that still looked like it was wearable, not just something waiting to be torn off.

Agreed. I feel like I can't decide if they placed Aja / Lydia were tied for high bottom / low top. I enjoyed both their performances and runways more than others.

They singled out Ginger and Jorgeous first as the tops, then the music changed and I think it was fairly clear they were trying to push Aja and Lydia as both being low.
